Document Archive 0.9.4

Document Archive provides is a Web-based BibTeX archive.

Document Archive is a Web-based database to help you keep track of the vast amount of electronic documents and BibTeX entries you might have in use.

Browser plugins and console frontends allow fast access with typical tools.

The underlying database is MySQL (because it's addressed through Perl's DBI, it might work with others as well).

Here are some key features of "Document Archive":

· widely configurable
· charset recode (bibtex, html, rdf)
· tree structure for content classification
· multiuser containers may be used to group project oriented documents
· public runmode allows readonly access to allowed documents for anyone without authorization
· fully themeable
· traditional (standard) theme
· fully css-configurable per central stylesheet for nearly every class of elements
· user customizable (some options that influence the handling)
· strictly xml conform (uses doctype xhtml 1.0 transitional)
· optimized for mozilla, but also runs under recent versions of other browsers. it's not planned to support obsolete browser versions because i'd like to concentrate on standards like xml, css and dom.
· simple layout that returns special pages for your internal search engine (eg. htdig)
· dynamic online help
· fields/doctypes structures and categories configurable via web interface
· command line interface (cli) for simple access during latex document compiling
· internal database search lets you specify complex search expressions
· fulltext search through document files available via integrated ht://dig support
· modular extensible. available extensions:
· frame and iframe based extensions of the traditional theme
· planned: scan2pdf interface (tiff/bmp/png/jpeg -> pdf)
· planned: content extraction (just have to upload a pdf file, database extracts the necessary content)
· planned: printing and format conversion capabilities (ghostscript, xpdf, lpr, psutils)
· planned: email support (send registered users bibtex entries or document files)
· planned: documentation of template interface
· planned: little integration into some famous editors (eg. vi, emacs, kile)
· planned: more browser integration (eg. internet explorer, opera, konqueror)
· mozilla/firefox integration (plugin and search engine)
· direct access to documents via toolbar
· select html embedded bibtex and post it directly to docarc via context menu
· let docarc parse the currently viewed web-page (many famous e-journals are supported)
· query document archive from sidebar or url input field

· new input filters for Institute of Physics journals, Science Direct journals and PubMed
· new document type problemset for publishing exercise sheets to your students
· a new prx input filter has been written to compensate for changes in prl/pra/... layout. download prx.pl here and replace the old one in the modules/parse_bibtex directory
· completely rewritten almost everything. new features are
· multiple files can be attached to a bibtex entry
· document type of existing entries can be altered
· speed improvement
· pagewise browsing through category view of search result (ie. offset and limit are working)
· more comfortable edit the doctypes/fields structure

· speeded up search a little by optimizing sql queries
· introduced cli command upload to put a document file for a specified document into the database (eg. for use in makefiles to update your document entry)
· 1x1 document description fields are now represented by two radio buttons rather than a checkbox
· Content-Disposition header ensures correct filenames when downloading documents
· some pages now have HTTP Last-modified header so ht://Dig does not need to parse unchanged documents
· fixed database and style bugs and standards conformance
· after new entry submission user will be redirected to the corresponding entry view (in case he wants to add it to categories or file any meta-data)

Exaile 0.2.8

Description by the Software Developer:
"Exaile is a media player aiming to be similar to KDE's AmaroK, but for GTK+. It incorporates many of the cool things from AmaroK (and other media players) like automatic fetching of album art, handling of large libraries, lyrics fetching, artist/album information via the wikipedia, last.fm support, optional iPod support (assuming you have python-gpod installed).

In addition, Exaile also includes a built in shoutcast directory browser, tabbed playlists (so you can have more than one playlist open at a time), blacklisting of tracks (so they don't get scanned into your library), downloading of guitar tablature from fretplay.com, and submitting played tracks on your iPod to last.fm."

"Xara X is an advanced graphic illustration package for Windows, that offers unrivaled redraw speed and a user interface which other developers have tried to imitate, but never matched. Producing vector illustrations is quick and easy using the comprehensive drawing tools, but many of the advanced features which Xara pioneered - such as transparency and real-time anti-aliasing - can be applied to both vector and bitmap images. But Xara isn't just about sheer speed and useability, or even leading edge technology. Rather than falling into the bloatware trap that is common with graphics products, Xara has concentrated on creating the world's best implementation of the essential toolset that designers really need, in order to ensure that working with Xara X can be both highly creative and very productive. As well as all the drawing tools you would expect, Xara X offers options such as automated shadows, bevels and contours, pressure sensitive brush stroking, multi-stage graduated fills and feathering. Xara X can produce compact, highly optimized graphics, making it an ideal choice for creating web graphics, and with this in mind we have added a tools to aid in creating graphics for the web, such as a NavBar tool, image slicing capability and Dreamweaver integration."
